Josh,

chatting with some developer, I got the following information:

It looks like the Linux middle level scsi driver scsi_mod.o is not loaded.
zfcp may not loaded into the kernel, either.  Try the following:

> lsmod (check output, see if scsi_mod and zfcp are there)
>modprobe scsi_mod
>modprobe zfcp
>modprobe IBMtape

Can you let us know whether the mid scsi stack modules are loaded?
What is the result of the commands above?

Kind Regards
Christoph

No, you don't need the kernel source.  Did you try the modprobe command
anyway?

Mark, thanks for the reply

I tried as you suggested and ran depmod.  Here's what I got then.

primvr2p:~ # depmod -a
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.21-273-default/kernel/drivers/scsi/IBMtape.o

I don't know what this means.  Do I need the kernel sources installed
also?

Thanks

Josh
